0:00:21 > 0:00:24she was joined by the acclaimed BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50..and Aziza Brahim.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53But first, here is Karine Polwart

0:00:53 > 0:00:56with a piece composed specially for the event.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59She was accompanied by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra

0:00:59 > 0:01:02conducted by Jules Buckley and led by Kanako Ito.

0:01:09 > 0:01:13On May 11th, 1930, a young woman called Mary Anne MacLeod

0:01:13 > 0:01:18from Tong on the Isle of Lewis stepped aboard the RMS Transylvania

0:01:18 > 0:01:21from Glasgow to New York City in search of a better life.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25There, she met Frederick,

0:01:25 > 0:01:28whose father had emigrated to America from Germany

0:01:28 > 0:01:30as a 16-year-old boy,

0:01:30 > 0:01:33and together Mary Anne and Frederick raised five children.

0:01:35 > 0:01:40Mary Anne's middle son would return to Scotland years later,

0:01:40 > 0:01:42the home of his MacLeod ancestors,

0:01:42 > 0:01:47whose clan motto is, "I burn but I am not consumed."

0:01:47 > 0:01:53And here, in the name of progress and profit, and executive golf,

0:01:53 > 0:01:57he would pit himself against time and tide.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00And in his wake, the shifting dunes of Balmedie in Aberdeenshire

0:02:00 > 0:02:01would never be the same.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05The marbled metamorphic rock of Lewis

0:02:05 > 0:02:07is two thirds the age of Earth,

0:02:07 > 0:02:10amongst the oldest on our planet.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13It knows about power and it's seen a lot.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15And so I wondered,

0:02:15 > 0:02:18what might it have to say about the inauguration tomorrow

0:02:18 > 0:02:19in Washington DC

0:02:19 > 0:02:23of the 45th President of the United States of America,

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Mary Anne MacLeod's middle son Donald?

0:02:26 > 0:02:30And this is what the rock told me.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46Oh son of Lewis, lonely boy,

0:02:46 > 0:02:48hewn from granite, salt and sky

0:02:48 > 0:02:51upon a foreign shore:

0:02:51 > 0:02:54the ocean is a mirror gleam

0:02:54 > 0:02:56in which you see yourself,

0:02:56 > 0:02:57and nothing more.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Three billion years of gravity,

0:03:03 > 0:03:06of strata forged in fire and earth,

0:03:06 > 0:03:08the stone crib of your mother's birth,

0:03:08 > 0:03:10in which your forebears lie.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15I am alive. I am a tomb.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17I burn, but I am not consumed.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20I burn, but I am not consumed.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Fish may swim at your command

0:03:25 > 0:03:29across The Atlantic to the land

0:03:29 > 0:03:32of dreams and self belief and boundless chance.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35An exile tale. An immigrant dance.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37You're captain of a frigate now,

0:03:37 > 0:03:40So set your compass, raise the mast,

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Blow up the sails,

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Erase the past, and future, if you must.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48# Together we can stand

0:03:48 > 0:03:51# And watch the peat-land turn to dust... #

0:03:52 > 0:03:54This is your apprenticeship:

0:03:54 > 0:03:58The Gulf Stream doesn't know your name,

0:03:58 > 0:04:00nor does the splendid, blazing sun

0:04:00 > 0:04:03that alters how the currents run.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06The North wind never heard you roar:

0:04:06 > 0:04:09You're fired! You're fired!

0:04:09 > 0:04:12My back might burn, the blaze run wild,

0:04:12 > 0:04:14but I am not consumed, my child.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18The Minch whips up a spindrift storm.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21The machair shifts. The machair moans.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23From Uig Bay to Luskentyre...

0:04:23 > 0:04:26# The gale blows fast, the tide flows higher

0:04:26 > 0:04:29# The shore erodes and disappears... #

0:04:29 > 0:04:32And, meantime, you are stoking fears

0:04:32 > 0:04:35and stacking hope into a pyre.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36You strike a match.

0:04:39 > 0:04:43# Oh ma bairn, mo leanaibh

0:04:45 > 0:04:50# Oh ma bairn, mo leanaibh

0:04:50 > 0:04:53# Your mother was a wee girl once

0:04:53 > 0:04:55# Who played upon my rocky shore

0:04:55 > 0:04:58# And you, you are a broken boy

0:04:58 > 0:05:02# And you want more and more and more

0:05:02 > 0:05:05# You build a tower You build a wall

0:05:05 > 0:05:08# You live in fear that they might fall... #

0:05:08 > 0:05:10You who see nothing but your face

0:05:10 > 0:05:12in the sheen of the Hudson River.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17# Oh ma bairn, mo leanaibh

0:05:20 > 0:05:24# Oh ma bairn, mo leanaibh... #

0:05:26 > 0:05:28A balancing is yet to come,

0:05:28 > 0:05:30although by then you may be gone

0:05:30 > 0:05:34and leave a desert to your sons and daughters.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Still, these waters, they will rise,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42the North Sea haar will cover your eyes,

0:05:42 > 0:05:45despite your appetite for lies.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47And your disregard for truth.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Three billion years of gravity,

0:05:51 > 0:05:54of strata forged in fire and earth,

0:05:54 > 0:05:56the stone crib of your mother's birth,

0:05:56 > 0:05:59in which your forebears lie.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03I am alive. I am a tomb.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05I burn, but I am not consumed.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08I burn, but I am not consumed.

0:06:11 > 0:06:16# I was Farrah Fawcett, you were Steve McQueen

0:06:16 > 0:06:19# And we rode your silver Grifter

0:06:19 > 0:06:22# Half the way from Aberdeen

0:06:24 > 0:06:32# And the waves

0:06:34 > 0:06:35# Fall

0:06:38 > 0:06:40# How they fall

0:06:49 > 0:06:52# I kept lookout in the marram grass

0:06:54 > 0:06:57# U-boats on the skyline

0:06:57 > 0:06:59# Commandos at the pass

0:07:02 > 0:07:09# And the waves

0:07:11 > 0:07:13# Fall

0:07:15 > 0:07:17# How they fall

0:07:20 > 0:07:22# And the tide still ebbs and flows

0:07:22 > 0:07:25# Where the Ythan meets the ocean

0:07:25 > 0:07:28# Not even God himself

0:07:28 > 0:07:31# Could stop the northerlies from blowing

0:07:31 > 0:07:34# You can tear theses dunes asunder

0:07:34 > 0:07:37# Pound this wonder into dust

0:07:37 > 0:07:40# With your cruel hands and crooked hearts

0:07:40 > 0:07:42# Laden with lust

0:07:42 > 0:07:44# And expensive lies

0:07:46 > 0:07:49# But the haar will stumble in

0:07:49 > 0:07:51# To cover your eyes

0:07:52 > 0:07:56# The haar will stumble in

0:08:04 > 0:08:08# You said Michael blew the clouds away

0:08:08 > 0:08:14# And a scarlet shard of sunset scores the granite grey

0:08:17 > 0:08:25# And the waves

0:08:26 > 0:08:28# Fall

0:08:31 > 0:08:33# How they fall

0:08:35 > 0:08:38# And the tide still ebbs and flows

0:09:53 > 0:09:56# All at once, everything changed

0:09:56 > 0:09:58# I became

0:09:58 > 0:10:02# What I never thought I could be

0:10:02 > 0:10:04# Is this me?

0:10:04 > 0:10:06# Or am I

0:10:16 > 0:10:19# She looked at me

0:10:19 > 0:10:22# With a sideways glance

0:10:22 > 0:10:26# Knowing nothing could be left to chance

0:10:26 > 0:10:30# We closed our eyes Standing still

0:11:24 > 0:11:26# One, two and three

0:11:26 > 0:11:31# What he wants will never be enough

0:11:34 > 0:11:36# Oooh-ooh-ooh

0:12:11 > 0:12:15# He let out an uncomfortable laugh

0:12:15 > 0:12:19# Let his eyes roll back

0:12:19 > 0:12:21# He writes it all down

0:12:21 > 0:12:23# Sleeps outside

0:12:23 > 0:12:28# Bums a smoke and goes on with his life

0:12:28 > 0:12:31# Oooh-ooh-ooh
